No I’m “people” defending a person from people twisting his words like you have been doing.
i mean i can tell you feel very passionate about being a mage considering you keep insulting me mages just aim at the ground and expect millions of dmg. idk yall are something else hahaha
Exactly cause flamethrower is an ability and not an auto attack ls so it should have a cooldown like all abilities do.
Don’t try to argue him, its obviously a troll.
to be fair i knew who he was before. i know for sure im not turning up to his stream again. so it wasnt mainly good publicity

That’s the crutch go to post when you have completely failed to argue your point effectively. Just call them a troll. Smh
i literally explained to you that flamethrower acts as an auto attack in that build? how did you miss everything else and just cling to to that one thing?
The only people who won’t watch his stream and see this as a negative are flamethrower users…that’s not many. Most people agree with him cause he was right.
damn comfortably numb is right 
but im a bb/ig enjoyer? 
edit: pls dont nerf bb because 3 bbs can blast you to narnia
Sure you are. You obviously have a love for the flamethrower. It’s pretty clear
I’m a GS user and think flamethrower is completely lame and bad for the weapon.
i guess i dont mind it existing? i was a mage since release,swapped to bb when flamethrowing became meta because i found it cheesy and stayed with bb mainly. but its kinda the only tool that keeps fs alive for the moment. its not affecting me much, but i dont really want to see fs completly gutted
no mage cares about flamethrower anyway. Just remove it from the game and give FS some utility.
WoW Dragons Breath spell is there. Replace flamethrower for Flame Breath, aoe stunning enemies. Give it grit and % fortifiy for enemy hit.
reduce Burnout and Incinerate wind up time by half
increase pillar of fire range and area
meteor shower: you cast it, after X seconds a meteor will drop and aoe damage/burn people, without you having to stand still
how hard?

Im flattered that tracking my forum activity is hobby of yours.
You keep saying examples examples what do you mean exactly, numbers? Get slotted in a war for once, go to OPR or wherever and see how big are the numbers that mages are pulling actually are compared to other dps options whilst considering their range and survivability.
Are the mage builds difficult to play? Farm from it. In fact NW skill ceilling is low in general so idk why do you even mention this.
FS is outperformed by majority of the dps options in the game as crit is no longer meta and it relies on crits but that seems to fly over your head too. Did you ever touch the weapon?
I am not struggling. I am just pointing out the obvious for everyone except you apparently. However if you seem to think that mages are strong atm, especially the light armored ones then you need some coaching.
And yes you are a troll imo because you just came in here derailling the message without saying anything of substance.
And you think mages are excelling in any of those atm? Outside of IG/VG.
Hearty alone compared to 150dex bonus plus hearty is a huge diff. Especially after the Brimstone patch. The reason I pointed it out is because of the light nerfs and why they affected light mages the most. You seem to be thick af and I am not gonna continue this back n forth with you since basic points elude you. Enjoy your bubbles bro.

This is the main reason I dont like flamethrower and wish the devs would make its autos and other abilities more effective. I can’t stand playing opr just to see all my fellows FS users sitting on point spamming flamethrower. I refuse to use because I find it kind of cheesy. FS is probably my favorite weapon so I hate to see the flamethrower ability basically defining the weapon. It’s like rapier users being defined by all the people abusing riposte. It just sucks.
im with you on that one and every other mage probably is to. but ur twitch friends caused them to nerf that one tool that keeps your friends playing mage to get nerfed and no compensation being added to it. sure remove flamethrower, but give fs something to be viable and relevant then
Take off all your gear, put 300 points into STR and equip a GA or WH, look at the base damage
Do the same thing with 300 points into INT and equip a FS or IG, look at the base damage
You will notice that the melee weapons have much higher base damage. Then look at comparable skills, in each instance melee weapon have higher percentage multipliers to damage
On top of that melee has more CC, grit and self healing

FS has extremely good burst damage, all aoe attacks. You are a range user who can counter musket, bow and any melee weapon. IG is insane utility, aoe and burst damage. Ice spike can still triple-hit people and one-shot people in heavy.
But sure continue with how you think IG/FS are worthless now.
ice spike one hitting heavy? what is this sorcery hahah
